| Vibration Control for Lightweight Tube Components Since there are six count ’em directions of motion for which isolation would need to be applied and since springs isolate quite well in the vertical direction and isolate somewhat less well in two of the rotational directions and, practically spea... | |
| Has anyone heard the new North American products preamp and amp? Roger wrote,"atmasphere: "as Carl Sagan said "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence". Your right - I guess since it cannot be measured then the only "evidence" is how it performs which by Carl’s definition has to be "extraordinary"."... | |
| Vibration Control for Lightweight Tube Components Good point about the power cord or ICs tending to pull the component down on one side, ruining the isolation effectiveness or, in the case of CD players, putting the CD transport out of absolute level, unless the power cord and ICs are suspended o... | |
| Has anyone heard the new North American products preamp and amp? Hey, you can’t have it both ways. If Roger enjoys doing it and wants to discuss it that’s actually what audio forums are for, no? Nothing like new technology to stimulate the old brain cells my granddaddy used to say. Now that the cat is out of th... | |
| Vibration Control for Lightweight Tube Components Lowrider asked,"@geoffkait , interesting."OUR NEW PRODUCT!! - Super compressible MINI ISOLATORS - VERY LOW RATE SPRINGS FOR ISOLATING REALLY LIGHT THINGS."Are these springs heavy enough to stand on their own? Will a board placed on top with a comp... | |

| Vibration Control for Lightweight Tube Components "Geoff---When you say "I can do it cheaper and better" and "My springs are the lightest in the business", may I take that to mean you market such a product? Can you direct me to a site, or provide contact/product info?"I've been in the business of... | |
| Most Effective Tweaks? I realize this will probably come across as argumentative or beating a dead donkey, nevertheless what I’m actually referring to is not EM or RF. I’m referring to the induced Magnetic field from the transformer or in some cases from adjacent AC cor... | |
| Has anyone heard the new North American products preamp and amp? Geoffkait: Are you doing something quantum mechanically? Or are you just fond of the word quantum? ;-)Roger: Yes - part of the auto-focus circuitry that tracks sound objects (as a very small signal)I do not see that auto-focus circuitry as being q... | |
| Vibration Control for Lightweight Tube Components Lowrider57 wrote,"@geoffkait, I thought they might be "spongy" like the 1/2 tennis ball concept."-- tennis balls or 1/2 tennis balls don’t have the right spring action to act like a real spring either. You actually need to match the spring rate of... | |
| Most Effective Tweaks? mapman,Thanks for the details!This has been an ongoing issue for me for years. It’s managable but creeps into audibility at higher volumes. I’ve chased it with ICs, power cords, rack placement, "cheater plugs", medium output cartridges, etc. I thi... | |

| I am somewhat amazed that there is no thread dealing with Star Sound Tech's devices I hate to speak before all the facts are in but it doth appear there are two, count em, two, Critical Masses. | |
